This is one dish I always loved at home. But, never knew how my mom used to prepare. I tried this last week and it came out really well. There are two ways, you can cook this. First, let me post the easy way here. I need some more time to try out the other one and post it :D
Ingredients:
Prawns - 250 gms
Potato - 2 tiny potatoes or 1 big
Brinjal (optional) - 1/2 of 1 brinjal
Tomato - 1/2 of 1 tomato
Onion - 1/2 of 1 onion
Coriander leaves - 2 stems
Cinnamon - 1
Cloves - 2
Salt
Oil
Garam Masala Powder - 1 teaspoon
Chilly Powder - 1/2 teaspoon
Coriander Powder - 1 teaspoon
Pepper Powder - A pinch
Turmeric Powder - A pinch
Ginger Garlic Paste - 1/2 teaspoon
Grated coconut - little
Somf (optional)
Procedure:
Steam the prawns in a thava after you clean it. Add little water, not much, as prawns will have water after cleansing. Sprinkle little salt and garam masala powder. Let it get cooked. This is again optional. You can avoid this step.
Boil the chopped potatoes and brinjal. If you are using a pressure cooker, just two whistles will be fine.
When you know, its cooked, pour little oil in a thava. As it gets heated, add cinnamon, cloves, chopped onions and fry them. When onion turns golden, add chopped tomatoes. Mash the tomatoes as you fry them so that the water is all absorbed and tomato is cooked. Now add ginger garlic paste and keep frying. Let it fry, else you'll get the taste of this paste. When it is almost mixed with onions and tomatoes, add Garam Masala Powder, Chilly Powder, Coriander Powder, Turmeric Powder, Pepper Powder and fry the masala. Do not overheat and burn the masala. You can add some somf also (optional).
Add a cup of water. Add salt for taste.
Add prawns, potatoes, brinjal. If you haven't cooked prawns initially, it will take some time to cook here. Let it get cooked. Keep checking until the water is all absorbed. When it is done, sprinkle coriander leaves and grated coconut.
Serve with hot rice or chapathis.
Note:
Cook with the flame in SIM.
You can either cook prawns in advance or cook them along with the masala. Another version of this recipe: http://katmandige.blogspot.in/2013/03/etti-prawn-sukka-traditional-way.html
